Abstract

A new plant variety of Lonicera periclymenum characterized by its fragrant and abundant flowers.

Description

Botanical classification: Lonicera periclymenum, c.v. ‘Scentsation’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Lonicera periclymenum L., which was discovered as a naturally occurring branch sport of an unnamed, unpatented variety of Lonicera periclymenum plant by John Edmunds and Elisabeth Wilms in Herefordshire, Great Britain. The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘Scentsation’.
The genus Lonicera is included in the family Caprifoliaceae which comprises about 15 genera of shrubs growing in the northern and southern hemispheres. Lonicera comprises over 200 species of deciduous or evergreen shrubs, and erect or climbing shrubs, many of which possess desirable ornamental characteristics.
Lonicera periclymenum is a twining shrub native to Europe, North Africa and western Asia, with ovate to ovate-oblong leaves the undersides of which are colored bluish green. Flowers of L. periclymenum appear in whorls in summer and are two-lipped and pale yellow in color.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety was discovered as a branch sport of an unnamed, unpatented variety of Lonicera periclymenum and differs from its parent in having more fragrant and more abundant flowers. Asexual reproduction of the new variety by stem cuttings, performed in Herefordshire, Great Britain and Vacaville, Calif. have confirmed that the distinctive characteristics of the new variety are stable and transmitted to succeeding generations, and the new variety reproduces true to type.
COMPARISON WITH PARENT
‘Scentsation’ is distinguished from its parent and all other varieties of Lonicera periclymenum of which I am aware, including the most similar variety, Lonicera periclymenum ‘Graham Thomas’ (not patented) in having more fragrant and more abundant flowers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying photographic illustration shows a specimen of the new cultivar as true to color as is reasonably possible to make in an illustration of this character. The photographic illustration is of a one-year old plant grown outdoors in 1-gallon containers in Vacaville, Calif.
FIG. 1 illustrates the typical flowers of ‘Scentsation’.
 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
‘Scentsation’ has not been observed under all possible environmental, cultural and light conditions.
